Abstract

The arrival of a form of production known as ready-to-wear, coming from Europe to an area of the capital of Chile, resulted in an adaptation process of the international trend to the local milieu. This article seeks to delve into the identifying factors of Chilean ready-to-wear by analyzing the modes of production, commercialization, and dissemination of a group of boutiques located in the eastern part of Santiago that were the first offerers of the novel garments. These settlements defined a geography of fashion in the commercial area of the commune of Providencia that facilitated going through it by foot. Eventually, this walkable fashion cartography started to dissolve as the free market economy encouraged the arrival of the mall and its enclosed dynamics.
